A Future for Us All - Sir Ken Robinson
Shortly before he passed away, Sir Ken Robinson called Andrew Park - Founder of We Are Cognitive to arrange a gift for his beloved community - A new animation, based on what proved to be his last public talk, ‘My Thoughts for The Call to Unite’.
The team at We Are Cognitive, whose RSA Animates have created joy, sparked wonder and have engaged the minds of over 100 million people globally, have worked tirelessly for months to ensure that you receive the gift Sir Ken wanted you to have.
Imagine if… Available Now
------------------------------------------
In his final years, Sir Ken Robinson was working on his Manifesto 'Imagine if... : Creating a Future for Us All' (now available: www.sirkenrobinson.com/imagin..., a searing new book that would serve as his manifesto on creativity and education. Written for both new and dedicated audiences alike, it’s a coherent overview of the arguments that he dedicated his life to, and a pivotal piece of literature for the education revolution he began. Shortly before he passed away, Sir Ken asked his daughter and collaborator, Kate Robinson, to finish writing this manifesto and to continue his work.
At its core, Sir Ken’s work is a love letter to human potential and a celebration of what we are capable of achieving and being as a species, if we create the right conditions. Imagine if... is a rallying cry to revolutionize our systems of education, and the ways in which we run our businesses and structure our social systems, to bring out the absolute best in everyone.

A beautiful man who lives in so many hearts forever Enormous inspiration for me ❤
I love you Ken. What an amazing man he was. May our broken education system die and may Ken's wonderful vision becomes a reality ❤️❤️❤️
Rest In Peace, Sir Ken Robinson❤❤❤
I see and read many accolades for him. The next natural question for those showing appreciation for his message is “ what am I now becoming? What can I do, and I am doing, to make a difference in others lives for now and in the future for others?”
As a third generation biodynamic farmer and someone involved in starting a school, I would like to thank Kate / We are cognitive for continuing Kens work. The reward from natural farming and democratic schooling is connection, Love and a powerful sense of belonging.
I hope we didn't blow our chance with creating a new normal. Going to miss his insights on education and world-view. He was a visionary.
“There is an opportunity. It takes bravery and imagination, and we have plenty of that in store.” - Sir Ken Robinson

Thinking of such clarity is a really valuable legacy... he will be missed.
Bless you Sir ❤.... rest in peace and may the last arrow of your vision fly far and true to meet its target of fertile minds and plant its seed for our greatest future.
How is it that I still follow Sir Ken even though I retired 15 months ago.A very special human being who remains influential and relevant despite no longer being with us. I gained hugely over a few decades under his vision and generosity in sharing it. Diolch
Thanks for such an extraordinary gift!
I love my teacher, Sir Ken Robinson. He was a real educator. He was the most sincere one I have run across in my education life so far. Rest in Peace.

What an Amazing Gift! It Takes A Sir Ken Robinson (RIP) To Help Us Realize We Can Grow Organically Now! And Primarily Through Our Education System. Since 2006 Sir Ken Robinson Is Our Education Guru, And Have Brought Prosperous Change For Our Team, Student Teachers, And So Also Our Kids, Through Our Art Classes Inspired By Theories Of Sir Ken. We Will Be Sharing His Incredible Gift! We Can Never Thank Him Enough! From Aruba With Love.
His talk to teachers in 1980 riveted me. I went on to develop group string teching thereon. Great fun . Good results but not in terms of assessment of individuals but in his organic peer group learning philosopy 😅 based on Suzuki / Paul Rollands pedagogy of movements and language patterns A famiy based movement took up our spare time with great stimulus.
I have been a great fan of Sir Ken Robinson for many years and totally agree with his thoughts and can relate to his views based upon my education and career journey in education. It was a very sad day when Sir Ken moved on to the other dimension and I prey that our education systems change in line with his vision.
I love this guy 💕
Thank you for this. An excellent summation of Sir Ken's vision for the future.
Thank you for leaving us a huge contribution on this earth!
We lost one of the best of us. A wonderful man and visionary.
BRAVO!!
Brilliant Sir Ken, we will be sending this link to as many schools and decision makers as we can. You are an inspiration to all who care about our children's well being and future happiness. Thank you so much. 🙏🙏🙏
A fabulous final manifesto from Sir Ken - the true master of life, learning, and education. My passion to imagine and bring about this revolution - to empower youth to realize their great potential in compassionate communities - has been informed and enflamed by all his great contributions. Thanks to Kate Robinson for helping to curate her father's writings into the masterpiece book behind this beautiful video: Imagine If...A Future for Us All.
Just watched with my 18 yo son, we love everything he says and it all makes so much sense to us!! Thank you for this amazing work putting it together! I've just shared it with my contacts and will continue spreading the word of Sir Ken :)
If we could all read, listen and watch his body of incredible work, and others like him, then implement any aspect that we are capable of, then change can happen. If we all do a little, we all do a lot xx
Wonderful! So beautiful to witness this xxxxx

Always brilliant!! Is it posible to have thisvideo with subtitles in Spsnish?
Great guy
Per favore, non conosco l'inglese, solo il francese e lo spagnolo. Parlatemi nella mia lingua italiana che ha anch'essa il suo valore. Sono un'ammiratrice di questo grande educatore geniale che è Ken Robinson. Sono italiana. Parlatemi in italiano. Grazie!
Beautiful message! Is there any way to get a print of the final illustration?
Hi, there is an edit flaw in the beginning. The audio of Sir Ken Robinson is gone in the first few seconds of the first clip. Thank you for this video.
Beautiful thoughts and inspiring talk. Teachers in US are not motivated to teach with passion because they’re stressed from economic burden. I think government should make it mandatory for top 1% of income bracket individuals to pay extra taxes that would only go for teachers and schools. Teachers are leaders of the next generations and it is the society’s responsibility to support them well, so they can continue teaching with passion and time. Industrial revolution only cares about quantity, not quality. It’s the same in medical profession. Doctors are not rewarded for their true quality of care, but the quantity regardless of quality. These changes are doomed to fail.

I'm based in Argentina ( although a friend of Ken's from Liverpool) and i totally agree with you. It's dire here and nobody cares. I've always said that those high earning Movie and Sports stars should do similar......

@@ssnhillyard I am not a teacher but I see how my son’s school is losing good teachers due to economic reasons! I cannot imagine how rich people sleep at night in their $15 million yachts and not give a damn. The excessive money they have is a reflection of gross inequality in our society. I hope the wave of awareness Sir Robinson generated can wash away the gap and help the future generations!
Back to normal.. I wonder what he would think of the abomination mankind has condoned through lack of education in science, nature, finances etc? We are looking to unruly government, beaurocrats and self appointed world leaders. We need to make the change. Our governments are futile and insignificant and have been usurped. Always admired Ken Robertson even though I disagreed with his unwillingness to out the powers that be. R.I.P
I want to help press reset. I want my 4 year old to live and save our culture.
(i don5 know how to direct message sir ken so i will put it as a comment and would be nice to see other people thoughts and input on this) i have close to the same beliefs in terms of the education. But my reasons is for the way that people are (not just kids in school) are tort. Its been for a few years that i had these feeling and thoughts. As i see there are many things that could or should be improved to benefit the world or society. As for this revolution in education ..... well why do you not create a platform or a group for this. I know if i could i would ..... But you (sir Ken) have something i or many do not have .... influence. If one is brave enough to lead many will share that burden and follow. I do hope that thus reaxhes you
RIP

It is our lack of faith and the majorities total disbelief in God and the devil and understanding of the bible.
